IDVD 4.0.1 Troubles

Ok, let me just outline the difficulties I've been having:
So, my friends and I put together a couple different half hour movies on a somewhat old DV [I think] camera that records to a tape. We uploaded each of these movies in succession to iMovie, added transitions and put the movies together in it without a hitch, and then tried to go into iDVD. For the first movie, we had a relatively simplistic menu, consisting of a title slide and scene selections [about 20 scenes] and music on this. In iDVD preview, it all worked great. This all happened a while ago, so I might be slightly off on some of this, but the general concept remains the same.
Next, we burned the movie with iDVD.
It burned. But not well. On the DVD, which, to iDVD's credit, actually did play on my home DVD player, compression artifacts [big cubes of one color] abounded, not on every scene, but they popped up about once a minute all over a half-second or so clip. And the audio gradually mis-aligned itself. But hey, first movie ever, so we were happy.
So we get to the second movie. Same process, until we burn with iDVD, and the burn fails entirely. iDVD merely succeeds in rendering a blank DVD completely useless. So we try again, same story. Then I think we gave up on it for a while. So we try again with a third movie, same story. Same original editing process, and it doesn't burn from iDVD. Menu was more complex, but only 5 slides or something.
I just tried another iDVD burn with advice I got from another forum, and I was suggested to export the movie from iMovie as a .DV file and then bring that into iDVD. It worked better this time. I set up a menu with one slide, no scene selection, audio on the menu, an intro movie [which I forgot to make a .DV and imported it as a .mov file.] and burned it. It encoded fine beforehand. During the burn, on Stage 2, iDVD seemed to freeze until I moved the window a little bit, and then I got that pinwheel for about a minute before it moved to Stage 3. Then it stayed on Stage 3 for 3 hours before I went to bed. So when I came down in the morning, iDVD had basically failed in burning, and 2 error messages came up, something like;
1) Buffer underrun error
2) Disc may be scratched [It was not]
So I popped the DVD into my home DVD player on a television. Intro movie was non-existant, menu was perfect, and the movie was fine for the first 2 minutes before it got full of compression error squares for about half a second and then the video stopped entirely and the audio continued on. Not quite what I was aiming for.
Any advice? Because I was hoping iDVD would work a little bit better than this.
BTW, I'm using a Dual Processor G5 with DVD burning capacity, and currently running Mac OS X 10.4 [not sure if it's 10.4.1 or 10.4.2 or whatever]. And iDVD 4.0.1.

Hi Cornelius
A. I am just trying out OS X.4.2 and QT 7.0.1 on an external hard disk and
having an unsafe experience. Mainly I use OS X.3.9 and QT 6.5.2
B. I don't Export / Share to iDVD or QT (.dv or what ever) but uses another
way that have been much more stable/safe (my opinion)
Try this way.
a) Close iMovie
b) find the project icon/folder
c) Ctrl-click on it and Show package.(if in iMovie HD/5)
d) in this there are a folder -> Shared Movies -> iDVD
e) in this there is a QT movie nnnnnnn.mov
f) drop this into an open theme in iDVD and save it as a desktop image
(if iDVD prior HD/5 You have to add a hack to make this possibly
named HPfurz and install it)
Test this with Apple DVD-player - OK then burn it with iDVD
or Toast if You have and don’t want to re-code the movie.
Yours Bengt W

  • Flickery transitions in iDVD slide show

    I have burned two disks now using iDVD and had no trouble but I do have a question about transitions in slide shows. On the first disk I used a slide show (8 minutes, 99 images) with the “fit to music” option and the “use safe area” option for the display. The images were a little too small for my taste on my TV so I redid the show and unchecked the “safe” option. At the same time, I cut 9 of the slides but since I kept the “fit to music” option the timing was slightly slower. Fine, but I noticed that the dissolves between the images were “flickery” when compared to the first one on my TV. I had extracted the .dv of the first slideshow and included it on the second DVD so I could compare them directly and it’s true - they are smooth in the first but noticeably less so in the second, full screen, slideshow.
    Has anyone else had this happen? Should I try to add nine more images back in? As it takes over an hour to burn this disk on my old, slow machine I'd rather ask first than attempt every possible variation on my own.
    I can add that both disks were burned with the 60 minute “faster” rather than the 120 minute “better” quality mode. Since one doesn’t display the flickering I don’t really think the quality mode is relevant but who knows...

    Hi Rick:
    Matti Haveri (one of the top rated iLife members) has done tests on this subject. here are his results:
    ----quote:
    Movie slideshows tend to flicker with high-frequency images while "soft" images are OK.
    So I did a quick test to see how the input image's resolution and blurring affects the output quality of those high-frequency images.
    Test material: some 2048x1536 digital camera JPG images that had a lot of very sharp edges (buildings, thin wires, construction work scenes etc -- i.e. "high-frequency" images). I converted them to TIF so that there was no lossy JPG degradation involved. I manipulated the images in Photoshop as follows:
    1. original 2048x1536
    2. original bicubically resampled to 768x576. I guess also iPhoto bicubically resamples; at least the results are very similar. On the other hand, I believe Graphic Converter does not have bicubic resampling so I haven't got as good results with it.
    3. original bicubically resampled to 640x480
    4. original with 90° (vertical) 3 pixel Motion Blur. The idea is to blur only the horizontal thin lines which flicker on an interlaced TV. The vertical lines are unaffected by this filter.
    5. original with 1 pixel Gaussian blur. This blurs horizontally approximately as much as the 3 pixel Motion blur, but it blurs the image also vertically.
    In iMovie's 4:3 PAL standard DV project (720x576) I applied to each image a) no Ken Burns and b) 1-5x zoomed 10 second Ken Burns. I did not let iMovie render the non-Ken Burns images while exporting the project to iDVD because that is a well-known source for bad quality.
    I burned the project via iDVD's Best Performance to DVD and checked the result via an interlaced 28" CRT TV.
    The results:
    #1-5 were all sharp with no Ken Burns as well as with 1x zoomed Ken Burns. But the higher resolution non-blurred input images were, in fact, TOO sharp and thus flickered on a TV:
    1. 2048x1536 flickered very badly with and without Ken Burns
    2. 768x576 flickered slightly less but also very disturbingly
    3. 640x480 flickered only little. But both #2-3 tolerated the 3-5x zoom very badly because the input resolution was so small. The zoomed-in image was too blurry and the details were lost.
    4. Vertical Motion Blur didn't flicker at all. But during the zoom there was some disturbing "living" in the vertical lines. Obviously the vertical lines must be blurred, too:
    5. Gaussian blur didn't flicker and the zooms were beautiful and peaceful. The Gaussian blur lost some fine detail in the zoomed-in image but the quality was very good. And the loss of fine detail is just a trade-off for the flickerless image.
    In fact, I have had very similar results to #5 with Photo To Movie's High Quality setting. Also Toast's slideshows are of good quality. A lot of people have also been satisfied with Still Life and PhotoMagico.
    Conclusions:
    - iMovie should blur the images so they wouldn't flicker on a TV. Applying a small Gaussian blur to the input images seems like a good workaround.
    - Using Photo To Movie, Toast, Still Life and PhotoMagico and other 3rd party utilities are good alternatives, too.

  • Share more than 1 DV movie to iDVD ?

    I'm editing DV with iMovie 09 (using instructions in Steve Mullen's book) and able to create a DVD using the Share to iDVD function.
    I'd like to be able to put more than one movie on a DVD and still have decent quality when I add the additional movie, but I don't know how to export it. Is it possible to use the Share function to add another movie to an existing iDVD project?

    I'm trying to do the same thing and finding it difficult.
    iMovie09's 'share' function to iDVD is great.
    Trouble is, what if you have more than one movie?
    Let's say you have two projects in iMovie09, project#1, and project#2.
    You highlight project#1 in project browser and 'share' it to iDVD.
    Project#1 renders and eventually opens in iDVD, ready to go with menu/theme and all that.
    All well and good.
    Now what about project#2 ?
    Assuming project#2 can't be 'shared' to the same iDVD session, then what form of iMovie09 'share' should be used for export so it can be later imported into iDVD?

  • An investigation of times required to burn DVD during 'audio' phase.

    These figures are for a 1 hour 40 minutes movie, with 3 tracks of Audio, trying to save to disk image on desktop. 80 Gig of HD free.
    When iDVD appears ‘hung’ it is actually saving to a file, called ‘tempmovie.mov’, in the iDVD project, which in turn is actually a package. I used a spreadsheet to track the size over time of this file, which hit a max of 1.01 GB in my case.
    • First attempt, 3 audio tracks....
    Rendering Menu/Assets took 3 1/2 hours.
    Rendering Audio
    - Phase 1. iDVD ‘locked’ and ‘unresponsive’. Rendering the file tempmovie.mov took 42 hours using up to 80% of processor time. iMovie used 12-18%. Initial spurt of several hundred Mb of file size in an hour, then about 100 Mb in second hour, then adding to the file at a low of 10 Mb per hour, high of 15 Mb/hr.
    - Phase 2. Spinning activity wheel (burning wheel?) started back up after indeterminate time (running at night). New file called ‘CurrentAudio’ created, but not added to, no files ‘growing’. iDVD unresponsive, but not marked in the Activity Monitor as such. Menus greyed out.
    Rest of audio terminated after waiting 60 hrs with iDVD using average of 13% processor time. I gave up on it, had to force-quit. iMovie was using about 8% of the processor time.
    • Second attempt...Single audio track.
    Trashed old iDVD project. Opened iMovie file with Garageband; took 41 hours processing time to merge the 1 stereo track and two mono tracks to 1 stereo track. Saved audio as two stereo tracks of 192 bit AIFF in less than 10 minutes. Exported it to iTunes.
    Turned off two tracks in iMovie file (top & bottom tracks), erased third (center) track and imported Garageband track to center via iTunes. Sent to iDVD.
    Rendering Menu/Assets took 3 1/2 hours
    Rendering Audio
    - Phase 1. iDVD ‘locked’ and ‘unresponsive’. Rendering tempmovie.mov took 16 1/2 hours, max. 80% processor for iDVD, max.12% for iMovie. Initial spurt of 240 Mb file size in first hour, then about 130 Mb in second, 90 in third hour, 66 in fourth, average of 45 +/- 6 Mb per hour after 4 hours. At end, 20Mb file ‘CurrentAudio’ created.
    - Phase 2. 14 hours at least spent with iDVD only using average of 2% of processor, iMovie using 5.5%. No spinning ‘burning’ wheel. Again, iDVD was unresponsive, but not marked in the Activity Monitor as such. I terminated the process with a force-quit.
    • Third attempt. Trashed, then re-installed iMovie & iDVD, with updates. Single audio track, erased the turned-off bottom track, as Activity Monitor had showed iDVD still opening the clips from the turned off bottom track during the second attempt.
    Trashed old iDVD project. Made small edit to iMovie project. Changed destination for finished disk image to Movie folder rather than desktop.
    Rendering Menu/Assets took 3 1/2 hours
    Rendering Audio
    - Phase 1. iDVD ‘locked’ and ‘unresponsive’. Rendering tempmovie.mov took 1 hour 45 minutes. Initial spurt of 600 Mb file size in first hour, then about 570 Mb/hr for balance. max. 88% processor for iDVD, max. 3.2% for iMovie.
    - Phase 2. 11 minutes to save disk image.
    Conclusions.
    Using three tracks of Audio increases the rendering time enormously (42 hours for audio).
    It also pays to erase unwanted tracks in iMovie rather than just unticking them (16 hrs vers. 1.75 hrs for audio).
    It takes the same amount of time to render three tracks in iDVD as it does to export them to Garageband, (and you still have to re-render in iDVD afterward).
    Either iDVD doesn’t like saving to the desktop, or I had a corrupt/missing file that prevented saving the disk image. Probably the latter.

    Brian,
    this year's price "Most Longanimous Person of The Year" belongs to you!! THANKS for you efforts and reports..
    you've probably read Karl Petersen's reports about some mysterious "benchmark", when an iM project gets stuttering/unrespondsively due to "too many" audio clips..
    .. I'm actually producing my Xmas gifts.. 55min project = 2h encoding ... (see spec below) ...
    but: I'm editing my iM projects mostly on an external harddrive; and it is a "habitual ritual" of mine, to import the final movie as QT/Full Quality file onto my internal hd, THEN fire-up iDVD => never had any trouble with audio-encoding; my videos are "solid" dv-streams ...
    so, how about adding that (single dv-stream of your movie) setting to your test set-up ...?
    and: why the hack 1:40h for testing?? why not ... 5min? ;-))
    happy holidays ..

  • The following files could not be found??

    All,
    Over Christmas I backed up my entire system to an external HD and then performed an erase and install of Tiger just to clean everything out. The transition has gone well until tonight . . . I went to open an older iDVD project I was working on and a box immediately came up that said "The following files could not be found . . ." It listed about 500 files including pics, audio, etc.
    It seems that when I reinstalled Tiger, my home directory and shortname is a little different this time than with the old OS. In essence, the only thing that needs to be changes is the username on all the files, but iDVD seems to be having trouble understanding this and finding the files. Does this make sense to anyone?
    For example, the path listed is Users/joebiedlingmaier/movies . . . etc.
    The new path on my current system is Users/jbiedlin/movies . . . etc.
    iDVD seems to have trouble recognizing that the file is in the name place, just with a different home directory name. Any ideas of how to get everything back in order? Even when it performs the search when I point iDVD to certain folders, it doesn't seem to recognize what it's looking for.
    -JB

    It won't help you now, but in the future do a File>Archive Project in iDVD to save all your assets in an archive. Since it includes copies of the actual files, instead of just links to those files, an archive file can be quite large.

  • Help, no DVD software

    problem, i have just made a video in iMovie but because i have a new OSX Lion mac that i have just spent £1500 on it doesn't have iDVD i am having trouble publishing it to dvd without having to spend money on software that snowlepered had for free. any tips or tricks.

    iDVD, as you have discovered, is no longer being bundled with new Macs. It's still available, but only on the retail (boxed) iLife '11 sets, which you can get from the Apple Store or most Apple dealers. There are other applications available that will create video DVDs, such as Toast from Roxio, but iLife is still less expensive even though you'll have redundant copies of iMovie and iPhoto.
    Regards.

  • Menu exceeds 15 minutes

    New iDVD user is having trouble getting the menu time down. All we see is this message but do not understand exactly what should be cut out in order to bring the menu time down. We have already removed a slideshow running in the background of the initial menu screen but that does not seem to help.

    The user has only pictures (single images, not a slideshow) that appear during the menu time.

  • My iDVD does not want to encode when I try to burn 2-part movies or series where I put 2 parts onto the disc. I was told before to use only Verbatim DVD-R, which I now do. Still having trouble.

    I was on here 11 months ago with the same encoding problem, where it would get to the encoding part of the burning and would stop, then up would pop up the "Open Finder" box, the one where it says you have put in an empty disc and would you like to eject it, ect.? I was told by the people I was in discussion  with that I should change from cheap dvds to Verbatim DVD-R only and I have, and  switch from "Magic iDVD" to "Create a New Project" and follow the directions there. I did that and for a while, it worked quite well. Now it doesn't. Once in a while there will be a newer movie that it will work on, but only a single and only a newer one that I have just downloaded. I download a lot of series from TV and used to have no problem. Is there any way to fix the encoding problem? I really need help on this and would really appreciate anyone who could give me assistance. And while I'm asking, are there any free cleaning services? I'm on a fixed income and can't afford to buy a computer cleaning service. I have gone to Disk Utility and gone through that, but that's all I can do.

    Hi
    There can be so many things that lead to this. As You download - then my first thought is
    In What Video-Codec ?
    There is no standard only out there but zillions of Codecs
    iDVD and iMovie are very selective in what they can use - sometimes they try and it looks like they manage - till the final DVD is to be tested in a standard DVD-player and fails.
    A. Open Your Movie (to be used) with QuickTime-Player (can handle so many more Codecs)
    B. If it play OK here - then Open Inspector [cmd+I] and read:
    Video Formatted (Codec) as: nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
    Frames per second: YY.yy
    What does they say ?
    Else what I can think of is in this note:
    Trouble-shooting guide
    When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
    • iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
    • Creating a new User-Account and log into this - forces iMovie to create all pref. files new and error free
    • Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
    • a Codec is used that doesn't work
    • problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
    • version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
    • preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
    • other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
    • External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
    ( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
    • USB-flash-memories - do not work (usually)
    • Net-work connected hard disks - do not work
(usually)
    • Run a Cleaning-DVD (no liquid - but the kind with brushes) - from time to time - I do
    • iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
    This You do by
    - close iPhoto
    - on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
    - now select all five options presented
    - WAIT a long long time
    • free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
    • external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
    • GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
    • Screen must be set to million-colors
    • Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
    • Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
    • Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
    • Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
    • In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
    (I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)
    buenrodri wrote
    I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
    Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

  • Trouble opening up old iDVD projects after upgrading

    Forgive me if this has been discussed but I took a quick look through the messages and I didn't find what I needed.
    I have some old iDVD projects that do not open under iDVD 6.01 (yes, I have the update.) It is as if my old themes (specifically "Baby Blue") have been erased. Is there some way to download them from the Apple site?
    Also, if I may, I want to pick a nit about iDVD. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it is wrong for the program to force you to use a pre-defined theme, even if it is customizable to the point of non-recognizition. If you somehow loose the old template or move the file to a new machine with no old templates, you're screwed unless you want to go through all the work of redoing your project.
    Thanks.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Many people have had troubles with older projects opening in iDVD 6...including my one left-over project that was finished.
    This is one reason you should finish a project, create a disk image, save the disk image, before "upgrading."
    If you somehow loose the old template or move the file to a new machine with no old templates, you're screwed unless you want to go through all the work of redoing your project.
    If you creat an Archive of the project, it should contain everything you need.

  • Trouble with imported sound also going to IDVD

    I imported some video and it was fine...then I imported another clip and placed it in front of the first clip. Suddenly that first clip has no sound. It is on the same audio track and the volume is clicked. i can hear the second clip fine.
    Also...I have a great deal of trouble with the digital tape looking fine on the camera, but then all jumpy and the picture is all digital screwy when its imported to imovie.
    When createing a new IDVD project, is there anyway to create a new on rather than just opening up the last one I was working one? That feature is all annoying and cause me to create duplicates of the work, eating up my precious space!

    I would honestly like to know why it would not work to just use the exported video from FCE into iDvD, there should be no aspect change in my case. The source in in 720x480. I also would have thought that FCE would be set up to transfer to dvd since much of what is done will need to be shown on that format?
    Anamorphicizer did not work for me!!
    myDvdedit I have not tried yet as looks to be too many steps to be practical.
    I suppose I will try QTpro.
    Any thoughts?

  • IDVD Slideshow Troubles

    I created a slideshow of 232 iphoto pics, put to music from itunes. I had to break it up into three pieces ( I would appreciate a workaround if anyone knows how to make a dvd slideshow more thn 99 pics). Trouble is I have a hard time selecting the menus on a regular dvd player. It works some times, other times not. Also, on my decent Panasonic Elite dvd player, the slideshow stops at every chapter. Any thoughts?

    I had to break it up into three pieces ( I would appreciate a workaround if anyone knows how to make a dvd slideshow more thn 99 pics).
    Be careful with that idea in iDVD:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302961
    Also, on my decent Panasonic Elite dvd player, the slideshow stops at every chapter. Any thoughts?
    I've read that high-end players have troubles with recordable DVDs.
    I recommend a disk image burned to Verbatim DVD-R at 4X or slower using Toast or Disk Utility.
    David Pogue also recommends Verbatim on page 356 of his latest book:
    iMovie HD & iDVD 6: The Missing Manual
    Quoting David: "Cheaper brands don't use the same amount of organic dyes and are more likely to suffer premature deaths."

  • I have an '09 mac book pro with an iDVD 7.1.2 (1158) and I'm having trouble DVD burning.

    I have an '09 mac book pro with an iDVD 7.1.2 (1158) and I'm having trouble DVD burning. I attempted to burn a DVD but the following error message appeared - 'Burning preparation error. Not enough free disk space for encoding the remaining assets. iDVD needs 6,541 GB of disk space to encode the remaining assets, but only 2,179 GB is available at "Macintosh HD". I've moved several items over to an external hard drive but this error message remains. How do I save this movie to the preferred external hard drive?

    You can move the iDVD project file to the EHD but you still need plenty of free space on your boot drive for encoding.
    It's strongly recommended that a minimum of 20-25 GB of free space be maintained on the boot drive.  Otherwise you'll run into what you're experiencing and increased encoding times.

  • Trouble with iDVD

    I am having trouble with iDVD. I work with Final Cut Express HD 3.5 to edit the video, then export the video to a .dv file. I import the .dv file to iMovie HD (6.0.03) add chapter markers there, then send the project to iDVD. When I am finished making menus and adding audio, I quit it, but if I open it again iDVD asks me if I want to update the assets. When I click update assets, I ruins all of my chapter markers and all the scene selections point to one marker. If I don't click update assets, iDVD will ask me to update assets when I burn it. HELP!!! I have searched forums and haven't found anything. The only way the I've restored my markers is by 1) Starting the iDVD project over again or 2) Deleting the iDVD .plist file (which really isn't a solution, because once I open the project again, it asks me again if I want to update assets which…………and the process repeats itself again).
    I have posted this before, but I forgot I posted it and Apple archived it. Sorry!!

    Hi
    I quit it, but if I open it again iDVD asks me if I want to update the assets. When I click update assets, I ruins all of my chapter markers and all the scene selections point to one marker.
    This is a BUG in iDVD'08 and onwards.
    Only medicine is to never look back - or start a brand new iDVD project.
    Sorry - there are no good solution to this as far as I've read this iDVD forum.
    Yours Bengt W
